GDid you hear what they said?
[Verse 1: will.i.am]

GNew York, New York, big city of dreams
CThere's a nightmare goin' down from the Bronx to Queens
AmAnd everywhere in between
DWe fighting somethin' we can'Gt even see
GThere's an invisible enemy
GJust knocked out Italy
AmKeep the mask on 'cause if you cough they gon' look at you like you did a felony
CAnd they said we can't hug nobody
DNot until we find a remeGdy
GSo we pray for Spain, France, and the U.K.
AmChina and U.S.A., I pray we gon' be okay
CPray for the grandmas and grandpas
DSo they can live to seeG another day
[Refrain: will.i.am]
GDid you watch the news today?
GDid you hear what they said?
[Verse 2: apl.de.ap]
AmThey say don't worry folks, it's all a hoax
AmThe news is fake and it's all a joke
CThe death toll's rising with broken hopes
DNow they got the cure and a antidote
GInject yourself with a bleach or soap
GAnd a checks in the mail 'cause they know we're broke
[Refrain: will.i.am]
GDid you watch the news today?
GDid you hear what they said?
[Verse 3: Taboo & will.i.am, Both]
AmThey said no one's alive to see the pope
AmIt's a ghost town coast to coast
CWe're just people that's tryna cope
DFrom different sides with different strokes
GLivin' different lives from different tribes
GBut everybody's in the same boat
[Refrain: will.i.am]
GDid you hear the news today?
[Verse 4: will.i.am]
GThey say the world is one
Am'Cause we're all fighting a war
AmBut nobody pick up a gun
CWe got nurses and doctors
DThey fightin' in the front line, savin' lifes
GI'm waitin' in line, I'm frightened
GIn the store, ah, that's the hero
GBehind the counter
GThey makin' the world go round
AmRiskin' new encounters
CThey in the front line
DDying for the minimum Gwage
[Refrain: will.i.am]
GDid you watch the news today?
GDid you hear what they said?
[Verse 5: apl.de.ap & will.i.am, Both]
AmThey say stay in the house, don't step out
AmIf you step out, put the mask on the mouth
CSix feet back, virus attack
DSoap on the hands so your lungs don't collapse
GDon't know the truth, don't know the facts
GRo-ro killin' all the brown and the black
[Verse 6: will.i.am]
GCOVID-19 got us on our knees
AmGot the temperature risin', 106 degrees
CIt don't care if you speak Cantonese
DFrançois or Portuguese,G Español or Japanese
GGotta start sayin', "I can't breathe"
GAh, isn't it ironic?
GWhen we can't breathe,C the planet breathes
CAnd we can see blue sky, blue seas, grDeen leaves, birds and bees
GI don't know what to believe
GAll the lies or conspiracies
[Refrain: will.i.am]
GAw, did you hear the news today?
GDid you hear what they said?

AmAw, nahC, somebody tell me what's going oGn
GAnd on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on
GOn, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on
GSomebody tell me what's going on
